CentOS6.5 install Google Chrome

As Google said before, since CentOS/RHEL6 is already an expired system, Chrome will no longer be available. Although it was later caused by community protests and thus changed the port, it was no longer mentioned that CentOS/RHEL6 is an expired system. However, currently there is no Chrome download and use on CentOS/RHEL6. In fact, the root cause is not how old CentOS/RHEL6 is, even Windows XP and Ubuntu 10.04

As Google said before, since CentOS/RHEL 6 is already an expired system, Chrome will no longer be available. Although it was later caused by community protests, and thus changed the port, it was no longer mentioned that CentOS/RHEL 6 is an expired system. However, currently there is no Chrome download and use on CentOS/RHEL 6.

In fact, the root cause is not how old CentOS/RHEL 6 is. Chrome can be used even for Windows XP and Ubuntu 10.04 that stops updating. The actual reason is that due to various considerations, Chrome cannot continue to update Chrome on CentOS/RHEL 6 because it uses C ++ 11 not supported in CentOS/RHEL 6.

So what if I want to continue using Chrome before CentOS/RHEL 7 is available? Use Chrome's open-source version: Chromium.

1. switch to root:

Su-or sudo-I

2. download the new software source definition:

Cd/etc/yum. repos. d

Wget http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/chromium/6/chromium-el6.repo

3. Install Chromium:

Yum install chromium

This completes the installation.

You can use the menu to start the browser:

To view the Flash and PDF files, follow these steps to install the plug-in.

4. install the Pepper Flash plug-in: 4.1. download the hughesjr auxiliary installation script:

Wget https://raw.github.com/hughesjr/chromium_el_builder/master/chrome_pepperflash_copy.sh

Chmod + x chrome_pepperflash_copy.sh

4.3 execute the script for installation (you can check the script content to understand what happened ):

After the installation, if you need to start it through the command line (with Flash support), you can enter the following command:

/Opt/chromium/chrome-wrapper % U -- ppapi-flash-path =/opt/chromium/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer. so -- ppapi-flash-version = $ (grep '"version":'/opt/chromium/PepperFlash/manifest. json | grep-Po '(? <= Version ":")(? : \ D | \.)*')

You can also modify the corresponding commands in the system menu.
